Baggin' the park just before dark...

I got my new Jake the Snake built last night in time to get its maiden voyage in as well. I rolled out to Wilderness via. the tracks because I didn't have a ton of light left. Went south first, to the bridge that just got fixed recently, and back through to Pioneers. It was just about perfect out there, and I must've missed the masses, because I only saw one other person out there the entire ride. Incredible...

Happy Friday!

You were rippin' on that new bike the other nite. Thanks for letting me hang on your wheel for a while. I ran out of gas and had to stop for a bite... Hated to miss seeing you ice those corners through the rest of the park.

Between the new Lemond and the Kona, the cross season is going to be seeing orange! Nice ride MG, see ya at the Cave.

Hey, maybe we could have an Iron Chef "Battle Orange"!

Thanks Lansen... I wondered where you went. It seemed like you dropped off pretty quickly (and you did-because you stopped to snack).

Mod, I'm just finally getting over the chigger bites from camping at caves two weeks ago. Note to self and others: Bring some major-strength bug repellant. That'll ensure a rippin', but bug-free experience next weekend.

I'm gettin' the Stinky ready for DH action too. Mod, you racin the DH too? I bet so... :-}

Cheers,
MG

NOOOOOOO! Leave the pie plate on! I'm still runnin' mine, it's funny.

Plus, I mean, you can never be too cautious. You could jump your chain into the spokes at pert neer any second!

lows in 50's this weekend. Will that scare any bugs away?

below 50 degree temps will sure keep the bugs at bay at least. i'd just about kill for one night of freeze right now. my allergies would be so thankful for a freeze.

i'm such a risk taker... taking my pie plate off. you're right mod, i could shift into the spokes -- geez... maybe i should put it back on! HA!
:-}
